WE most heartily endorse the senti-
 ments of the Arizona Silver Bel. in its editorial on the' Distribution of troops and abandonment of useless posts" re-
 published on the fourth page of this is-
 sue, and carefully commend it to the
 attention of ou- readers. It is oonclG-
 sivelY shown in the article referred to,
 that there is not, nor can there be any possible use for troops in YsvaPai coun-
 ty and Bs General Miles suggests, Posts
 Whipple mud Verde should be abandoned and re-estBblished on or near the San Carlos reservation. There the bad In disns are, and there should the troops md posts be also. The idea of the people of Yavapsi county wanting these two armed posts to pro tect them from few lezy, vermIn rid
 den Hualapai Indians is an insult Co their manhood. Quite true they don't want, and are afraid of the Apaches, bus so long as no Apsches have yet been quRrtered among them, and the probs-  biiity IS that none now will be, they will in aI likelihood, join theIr voices to those ot the people of Southeastern Ari- zcua for tke immediate removal of the posts in question. They are 30 virtuous people that fat army contracts and .he cllnk of Uncle Sam's com on pay day. nHs 10 Gllurlng smiles for them. They are not afraid Of the Huslspsis and the Apaches, at long range, have no terrors for them, so by all means We say let the northern posts be abandoned and re-es- tsblished where they will do the most good. This is on or near the San Car los reservation, On this point the ps- pers in the southeast are unit and we think the papers and people of the north will join hands with us and help the good cause along. |

to illustrate the practicability of a "bicy-

Much is usually said about the wrong
of eye service, as it affects the employer;
but as these thoughts are especially for
hired help, it is better to look at this sub
ject from the purely selfish standpoint
which an employe, careful only of his
own interests, might take. If hired help
try to do just as little as possible, not only
does this fact become known, but it
quickly forms habit which cannot easily
be overcome. The conditions of success
anywhere are push, enterprise and q de-
sire to do all that is possible,
Men who are accustomed to hold back,
fearing they viii do too much for their
employer, learn slowness and tardiness so
thoroughly that they cannot drop these
habits even when they come to work for
themselves. To work heartily and cheer
fully for an employer is, we believe,
equally important for both parties; but if
there is any difference, it should be Of
greater importance to the workman,
whose habits for life are being formed
rather than for the employer, who, at
the close of q season, if not before, may
discharge the unfaithful employe and
hire another in his place.-Boston Budget.

A social problem, which has been for years
a weighty one, has at length met a solution
in Washington-How can the duplication of
bridal presents be avoided? At a recent we'd
ding at the capital the friends of the bride
sent her mementoes in the shape of cash.
Ten dollar gold pieces, in sums ranging from
$50 to $500, were considered appropriate and
welcome presents The young couple could thus
buy what they chose with the money. That
such precedent will meet with the recogni-
ton 1t deserves is doubtful. There is some
thing pnsentimental about cash which will
doubtless offend the aesthetic taste of society.
But to those who have at their marriage been
overwhelmed with half dozen after dinner
coffee sets, eight or ten salad dishes, six or
seven oil lamps and innumerable cut glass
pitchers, the idea of $40 gold pieces appeals
with resistless fascination. Young people
about to wed may not be grasping, but they
are not SO overcome by sentiment that they
do not realize the superiority of Doodle over

These gentlemen may be justly con.
sidered rs the aristocraoy of the criminal
class. They are mostly recruited from
the ranks of the best and most highly
edu Gated classes of society, and their
favorite fields of operation are the rail-
way carriages and the hotels. Their
method of procedure in case of tho former
is as follows: They go to the railway ter
minus of one of the long lines and walt
near the ticket Office until they catch
sight of some traveller who, ON opening
his pocketbook TO pay his fare, shows that
it is well stocked. The chloroformist
buys ticket for the same destination,
takes seat in the same compartment,
and, after getting into conversation, either
asks his victim to join him in lunch,
which he produces from a well filed
basket, or offers him an excellent cigar.
Both the lunch and the cigar have been
carefully prepared with a strong mar
cote, and if either are accepted the un-
lucky traveller is soon plunged into
heavy stupor. The chloroformist then
opens little vial, which he generally
keeps hidden inside his hat, and places it
for n few moments under the nostrils of
the sleeper, gently applying TO the mouth
at the same time a sheet of fine parch-
ment, having the shape of carnival
mask, for the purpose of excluding the
fresh air.
The victim is thus quickly rendered
wholly insensiblc, and the thief is able to
commence his operations in perfect safe
ty. He takes possession of the pocket
book and empties it of all its contents eX-
! cept few notes of small value, and then
replaces it in the pocket from which he
has taken it, leaving the victims iewelry
and coined money untouched. Having
| removed the parchment mask from the
| face of the sleeper, he then leaves tho
train at the next big station. The traveller

/ aesthetic. The authorities finding them
selves in the presence of u corpse which

violence, and with the money, papers and

attribute the death TO natural causes, and
as a rule do not even insist on an autopsy.
